AIskNet

AIskNet is a lightweight Chrome extension built for people who want the convenience of an AI assistant over web pages without handing their browsing history to a cloud provider. When you open a page and click the extension icon, it automatically parses the visible content and turns it into vector embeddings. When you ask a question, the extension searches those embeddings, finds the most relevant passages, and generates an answer from them.

Because the model runs directly on your computer, everything stays on your machine — the only outbound network activity happens once, when the AI model files are downloaded during installation. To help you trust the output, AIskNet highlights the passages of the page it used as the source of each answer, so you can verify claims in seconds rather than taking the model at its word.

The project is open source (the code is published on GitHub by its developer) and is still under active development. Current versions perform inference on the CPU, and the roadmap points toward WebGPU acceleration for faster responses as smaller, more capable open-source models become available. It is a practical pick for students, researchers and privacy-minded users who want cited answers about long articles, docs or legal text.
